Abstract:With successful elimination of the extreme poverty by the end of 2020, China aims to solve the problem of unbalanced development and narrow the gap between urban and rural areas in the new development era. An ultimate goal as outlined in the 14th five year plan is to march towards common prosperity for all through rural vitalization and a new pattern of integrated urban-rural development. In June 2021, the Chinese government issued Opinions on Supporting Zhejiang’s High-quality Development and Construction of Common Prosperity Demonstration Zone. Zhejiang takes on the critical mission of exploring paths, accumulating experience and providing demonstration in common prosperity. In this context, the Workshop on “Integrated Urban-rural Development and Common Prosperity” are jointly organized by China Academy for Rural Development and School of Public Affairs at Zhejiang University, which will provide theoretical support for promoting integrated urban-rural development and realizing common prosperity.Learn more: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/PJCj024-KXd1Dmx8XEOO-A

Abstract:At the end of 2020, the German government announced a massive €4 billion budget to support research projects addressing global warming and sustainability under its FONA (Forschung für Nachhaltigkeit) strategy over the coming five years. China’s new five-year plan, released this March, confirms the country’s commitment to sustainability including peaking carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. Covid-19 has demonstrated that scientific collaboration plays a critical role in tackling complex challenges. In the same vein, environmental problems require a diversity of solutions based on scientific insights. Guided by its Sustainability Action Plan: A Global ZJU for Social Good (Z4G), Zhejiang University is working to enhance sustainability-related education, research and operations through a variety of programmes and activities, such as the inaugural Sino-German Sustainable Development Forum (SGF).Contact: Ms. ZHENG Qi, Partnership Coordinator, qizheng95@zju.edu.cnWatch live streaming on the following platforms:Parallel Session I & Roundtable Discussion:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ZhejiangUniversityChina/Parallel Session II & Roundtable Discussion:Twitter: https://twitter.com/ZJU_ChinaParallel Session III & Roundtable Discussion:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/ZhejiangUniversityChinaAlternatively, you can choose one-stop live-streaming through the link.

The BRIDGE 2021 is about to start! Apply NOW! Apply Deadline: Aug 23.About BRIDGE 2021:In 2020, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic made people think more about what on earth a “normal” world should be. In 2021, there are only nine years left until 2030, the deadline set by the United Nations to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). What actions should we take to build a bridge to a sustainable future? In response to this question, the BRIDGE (Better Responsibility Initiative - Design for Good Earth) Sustainable Design Action focuses on the SDGs. It brings together design talents from universities and companies around the world to address the SDGs using the design language, attempting to construct a bridge to a sustainable future through the lens of design. Concretely, the BRIDGE Action focuses on 5 SDGs. They are “Quality Education”, “Decent Work and Economic Growth”, “Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure”, “Sustainable Cities and Communities”, and “Sustainable Consumption and Productions”, which will serve as the main design themes and subjects for discussion. The BRIDGE Action is hosted by Zhejiang University under the Sustainability Action Plan: A Global ZJU for Social Good (Z4G). In March 2021, Zhejiang University has launched Z4G in response to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, aspiring to make a distinctive and positive impact by strengthening its commitment to the SDGs.Learn more: https://design.zju.edu.cn/bridge/?fbclid=IwAR0XBAF2UtLiBgvkKWkzHBwdHDzUjCAHg3WMSTcgopVdtqi-q0kUwbmZtQc#/Expert team:Prof. Shiro AokiHe is or was Good Design Award Fellow, COO of Japan-China Exchange Conference in Japan Design Consultant Association (JDCA), COO of Society for Design and Art Fusing with Science and Technology (SDAFST), Honorary member of Japanese Soci- ety for the Science of Design (JSSD).Prof. Makoto WatanabeMakoto Watanabe is a professor at the Department of Design, Division of Creative Engineering Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Chiba University, Japan.
